change the ips as you see fit

};
options {
version Bind;

Which would leave none for me. Even sbl.spamhaus.org contains a blacklist, which sometimes lists because of the name the machine has (CBL that is). Ralph DNSBL has information on many RBLs together with statistics on their effectiveness: http://stats.dnsbl.com/ Other popular RBLs besides Spamhaus include Spamcop, PSBL and uceprotect. As Ralph says, any RBL should be used with a certain amount of caution as it has the potential to cause FPs (some more so than others). An alternative approach is to use such RBLs as part of a scoring system such as SpamAssassin. This is particularly useful for RBLs that you don't trust to outright reject mail at the smtp level. If you want to improve on the performance of sbl-xbl.spamhaus.org, I would first look at switching to the combined zen.spamhaus.org zone which also contains the pbl.spamhaus.org zone. My own data shows sbl-xbl.spamhaus.orgto block around 50% of spam whereas zen.spamhaus.org hits on around 90% of spam with very few FPs for me - YMMV. You should monitor performance closely. Anyone have any experience dealing with SURBL? I have a client who's domain and IP is not listed in SURBL, but their client in China is using SURBL and my client's emails are getting blocked.

Re: [CentOS] question regarding mx servers with same priority

Having multiple servers with the same MX priority works fine (I prefer to think of this as distance as the lower ones have higher priority). There's no good reason to have multiple distances other than the shortest for final delivery and one or more with higher in case the primary is not available for some reason. a) do i have to create all the existing user accounts on my existing email server to this new server cause i already hav about 300+ email users already No, the secondary MX server(s) don't need any user accounts. Using postfix, we do generate a virtual file for each secondary MX server containing all the valid addresses for the domain(s) served by the primary server, allowing the MX servers to reject invalid accounts without having real user accounts. There are some good arguments for having a single MX server rather than multiple MX servers as it prevents spammers from attempting to deliver mail through the higher distance MX servers which may well not have the same anti-spam rules. At one of our regional ISP customers with about 10,000 e- mail accounts, we use a single MX server to accept incoming messages, This server runs postfix, amavisd-new, and clamav to pre-screen incoming messages for worms (Windows is the Virus) and phishing messages, then it forwards clean messages to a cluster of systems that do spamassassin checking and message delivery to the user's Maildir message stores which are NFS mounted on a central server. The MX server in this case rejects about 2,000,000 messages a day using a variety of IP filters, and delivers about 250,000 messages a day. It has a load average less than 1.00 except during the daily maintenance and security audits. It actually is the primary MX server for two distinct groups of domains, each with a separate user base. Each machine that is home to the user's home directories updates its own section of the postfix virtual table, using rsync to update the MX server whenever anything changes with the users. The MX server uses the postfix transport file to direct mail to the appropriate cluster servers to deliver mail.

non-authoritative answer from master 172.31.1.240#53 (source 0.0.0.0#0)
actually i would want all the cleints to query the 172.31.1.240 DNS server
without adding this IP in their configurtion . all the cleint hav our
master dns server in their own setup
so actually query 172.31.1.240 DNS server through our DNS
apprecite your help
or cd i have contitional forwarding something like when a client queries
the 172.31.1.240 our master DNS jus forwards the queries to 172.31.1.240
instead of sending it out on the internet
since 172.31.1.0 network is connected directly and is a part of out intranet
really wd apprecite your help and ideas with examples
regards
fabian

add this to your bind options section
forwarders { 172.31.1.240; };
and restart named, your named will now forward all requests that
it's not authoritative for to the above system.

Dear Nate
Thnks a million really apprecite for ur immediate reply
actually i was little confused
i had used the forwarder statment but it was at the start of the
named.conf section and the when i reloaded named it was giving me error
saying the statemnt not valid so then i created a zone
and included the the forwader statement in the zone i created but was not
workin
and also i had created a slave zone for 172.1.1.240 but also it didnt work
but moment i added forwarder statement in bind options section it worked
beautifullly
i jus didnt try putting the forwarders in the right place
thnks a million

fabian
